Hungarian spatial PPs

Hungarian spatial adpositional phrases exhibit very similar properties to those in other languages in that they can denote places and paths, and their structural ordering is such that path-denoting postpositions are outside place-denoting ones. One type of postpositional elements (the ‘dressed’ Ps) share various syntactic propertiesmwith oblique case suffixes, while members of the other group of post positions (‘naked’ Ps) are more like particles. All of these, however, are generated in an extended PP-structure with designated positions for place, path and direction

SzegedKoref : kézzel annotált magyar nyelvű koreferenciakorpusz

Ebben a munkában bemutatjuk a SzegedKoref nevű, magyar nyelvű, teljes egészében kézzel annotált koreferenciakorpuszunkat, amely nagy méretének köszönhetően a későbbiekben alkalmas lehet különféle koreferenciafeloldó algoritmusok tanítására és kiértékelésére is. Ismertetjük a korpusz felépítését, az annotációs elveket, majd statisztikai adatokat közlünk az annotált nyelvi jelenségekről

SzegedKoref: A Hungarian Coreference Corpus

In this paper we introduce SzegedKoref, a Hungarian corpus in which coreference relations are manually annotated. For annotation, we selected some texts of Szeged Treebank, the biggest treebank of Hungarian with manual annotation at several linguistic layers. The corpus contains approximately 55,000 tokens and 4000 sentences. Due to its size, the corpus can be exploited in training and testing machine learning based coreference resolution systems, which we would like to implement in the near future. We present the annotated texts, we describe the annotated categories of anaphoric relations, we report on the annotation process and we offer several examples of each annotated category. Two linguistic phenomena – phonologically empty pronouns and pronouns referring to subordinate clauses – are important characteristics of Hungarian coreference relations. In our paper, we also discuss both of them
